From Sparrow’s coffee and tea list, the Americano is a clean, full-flavored espresso drink, shots of espresso lengthened with hot water ($4). It is a warm, no-proof way to linger over weekend brunch or settle in on the patio.
About the Americano
Our coffee is roasted in house by Armistice Coffee, a local roaster, so every cup starts with fresh, carefully roasted beans rather than something off a distributor’s shelf. An Americano takes our espresso and opens it up with hot water, which gives you the depth and crema of espresso in a longer, easy-drinking cup. It is the order for anyone who wants real coffee character without the milk, and it pairs perfectly with a slow Saturday morning in Kirkland’s Juanita neighborhood.
Tasting Notes
Smooth and balanced, the Americano carries the roasted depth of espresso with a clean, mellow finish. It is rich without being heavy, and it stays satisfying from the first sip to the last.
What to Pair It With
Coffee and brunch belong together. From the Sparrow menu, enjoy an Americano with the Cinnamon French Toast, the doughnut holes, or alongside Eggs Benedict. It is also a great finish to dinner on the dog-friendly patio.
